What is the Sweat Challenge?

The Sweat Challenge is an exclusive 4-week program to hit refresh on your goals.  We’re making it easier than ever to set your goals, unleash your potential, feel your best and do something for YOU. 

Train alongside Sweat Trainers Kayla Itsines, Katie Martin and Britany Williams with an incredible lineup of 5-week goal-based programs designed to smash your goals and level up your wellbeing.

When does the Challenge start? 
Week 1 of the Challenge will begin on Monday, 1 June 2026 and continue through until Sunday, 28 June 2026. 

The entire community will come together and perform the Challenge together! Therefore, each challenge week will be available within the app for one calendar week. If you join the Challenge a week late on Monday, 8 June, you will start in week 2 of the Challenge. You are not able to go back and begin in week 1. To receive the entire 4 weeks' worth of Challenge workouts, be sure to sign-up before or on Monday, 1 June 2026.
